Press Release: Caabu Parliamentary meeting on the Trump plan deems it a non-starter
10 February 2020
Caabu director Chris Doyle has had a letter published in the Guardian on 31 January 2020.
Donald Trump’s plan is not a peace plan but a declaration of war. How else to describe a plan that gobbles up most of Palestine’s territory? At zero cost, Israel gets US approval to annex occupied territory – land that it seized through force and colonised.
A letter to Prime Minister Boris Johnson from 133 MPs and peers, from all parties, reacting to US President Trump’s ‘peace plan’, has been sent. In it, the parliamentarians express their grave concern over the plan’s contents, which they say “shows contempt for the aspirations and rights of the Palestinian people and international law, and provides no realistic basis for a return to negotiations.”

Prince Charles to visit Palestine
On Friday 24 January Prince Charles will become the most senior royal to pay an official visit to Palestine as he meets President Abbas in occupied Bethlehem. This follows the visit of Prince William in 2018.
Dear Prime Minister,
This month HRH Prince Charles visits Israel and Palestine together for the first time, invited by Presidents Rivlin and Abbas. He will undertake engagements on your behalf in both countries. This is historic, and welcome. For more than a century of reasons, Palestine is a country meriting equal treatment, equal rights and parity of British esteem with its Israeli neighbour - its temporary occupying power.
Caabu's Chair David Jones MP, board member Alistair Carmichael MP and Director Chris Doyle are among signatories to a letter to the Times: The Time is Right to Recognise Palestine.

Bethlehem: The ‘little town’ the world forgot
Article by Chris Doyle in Arab News 23 December 2019
The “little town” marks time itself; the common era began there 2,019 years ago, and nearly every date refers to the place, although we give it such little consideration except during the Christmas season.
